Article Synopsis
- The study explored quality of life (QOL) and functioning in 2,114 adults seeking outpatient treatment for various psychiatric disorders, focusing on differences across diagnoses.
- It was found that over 70% of participants reported severe impairments in QOL, with mood disorder patients, especially those with Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorder, experiencing greater impacts compared to other disorders.
- The results indicate a need for targeted treatment approaches that prioritize improving QOL and functioning, especially for those with mood disorders.
Background: Nipple delay (ND) is a staged procedure that improves nipple-areolar complex (NAC) viability in nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) patients who are high-risk for NAC or skin-flap necrosis. This study compared postoperative outcomes and risk factors between patients treated with ND-NSM and NSM alone.
Methods: Patient demographics, risk factors for NAC or skin-flap necrosis, tumor characteristics, and operative outcomes were compared between ND-NSM and NSM groups from 2009 to 2023.
Background: Long-term clinical outcomes of early intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) findings in a prospective cohort of heart transplantation (HTx) patients have not been evaluated.
Methods: This study included patients from 20 centers across Europe and North and South America among the original cohort of the RAD B253 study. Among these patients, 91 had paired IVUS images at baseline and 1-year post-transplant: everolimus 1.
Background: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends surgical resection for stage I small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Despite these recommendations and the curative potential of such surgery, many continue to underutilize surgery. Our aim is to investigate factors that contribute to underutilization of surgery for stage I SCLC.
